I have posts scattered around on this because so far I am at a loss. About a month ago got a CEL. Scanned it, called for bank 2 O2 Sensor. Replaced, reset the computer, went on our merry way. Not so fast, it is back again so I got under there, visually checked wiring, all looks fine, was a little oily so I cleaned things up a bit, flushed out the connector and put in some dielectric compound. Still runs horrible. Cleaned maf, IAC, unplugged, plugged back in, responded like they were working. Runs fine at WOT but misses like it is only running on 4cyl the rest of the time. I have a EGR DPFE on order thinking it might be that, tried running with it electrically disconnected, seemed to run better then ran worse. Running so bad right now it can't really be trusted. So did I kill an O2 sensor in 3 weeks? Could it be the fuel pressure damper (read some threads on regulators but not the damper). Can I bypass the DPFE for now or trick it into running OK until the new one arrives? If it isn't fixed by Friday after I parts swap some more, it is headed for the shop. Any help or guidance is appreciated.
Thanks.
Thanks.
